      Recruiting at Google is an experience you must not miss

      Pros

      The teamwork is wonderful and supportive, though competitive as all get out. Recruiting for the best of the best is an interesting and vital experience at Google. The ATS is wonderful, compared to others out there. The culture is vital, dynamic and engaging.

      Cons

      The up and down sides are there is a lot of change. Google does not get stale, that is for sure. But the processes change a lot which makes it a little less sticky than it "should" be, IMHO. There is a lot of social competitiveness that is very intense, but that does drive excellence, even if you do feel like your job could end any minute.

      Pros

      Great infrastructure, great technology, great food (bad for keeping fit though).

      Cons

      Slow process from idea to launch, too many hoops to run through. Infrastructure not easily transferable outside of Google.

      Great place to start your career

      Pros

      Amazing benefits, amazing people that make you grow, and amazing work. You really feel like what you're doing has an impact on the world.

      Cons

      It's easy to become a "number" at Google if you don't put yourself out there. You have to be assertive and willing to throw out new ideas. That said, depending on your job role, often that can be harder than it seems.
